Blaise Babineck isn\u2019t your typical teenager. Even at a young age, he already has a string of significant achievements under his belt.<\/p>\n

For starters, Babineck is believed to be the youngest teacher ever in the Hawai\u2018i Department of Education, which he joined last fall at the ripe age of 18. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels exciting,\u201d Babineck says. \u201cGoing into this, I didn\u2019t know that I would be the state\u2019s youngest teacher ever. But once I found out, it really showed me that even though something hasn\u2019t been done before, it\u2019s still possible to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, he\u2019s a year older (he celebrated his 19th birthday last month) and wiser and, similar to the made-for-TV child doctor played by actor Neil Patrick Harris, has turned into something of a real-life prodigy in the islands. <\/span><\/p>\n

Like Doogie Howser, Babineck loves science \u2014 specifically, chemistry. It\u2019s a subject he covers almost daily as the eighth-grade science teacher at King Intermediate School in K\u0101ne\u2018ohe. He\u2019s also the school\u2019s science fair adviser and has been a key figure in reviving the long-dormant program. His students won a number of awards at the recent Windward District Science Fair and also swept the podium at October\u2019s National Chemistry Week illustrated poetry contest. One of his pupils even captured the state poetry contest, and then placed second nationally. Meanwhile, at the Hawai\u2018i State Science & Engineering Fair held last week, Babineck was handed the Best Teacher Award in chemistry and his students \u2014 Daisy Menhennet, Star Segi and Emie Hinazumi \u2014 came away with the second-best chemistry award in the junior division for their project, \u201cDye Detective.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Turns out the school has been the perfect place for Babineck to guide science-minded students while also rubbing shoulders with many encouraging peers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe (King Intermediate) administration was super helpful, supportive, kind, welcoming \u2026 so I felt like this was the right opportunity for me,\u201d Babineck says. <\/span><\/p>\n

Although his classes are made up of 13 and 14 year olds, Babineck says it doesn\u2019t feel weird to be only a few years older than his students. To the contrary, he considers it a win-win. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey still understand that I have a lot more knowledge to share with them, but it also makes me more relatable to them being closer in age,\u201d Babineck declares. \u201cIt makes it easier to build things like trust and it makes me able to communicate content and things more relevantly, connecting it to things young people today are passionate about.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Likewise, he doesn\u2019t find it strange to be so much younger than his co-workers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no issues getting along with my fellow teachers and colleagues here at King,\u201d he says. <\/span><\/p>\n

Part of his adoration for the Windward O\u2018ahu campus is rooted in being a small rural school with student demographics similar to the schools he grew up attending in West O\u2018ahu. It\u2019s also located along K\u0101ne\u2018ohe Bay, offering science students unique opportunities to partner on projects with environmental and Native Hawaiian cultural groups caring for fishponds and taro patches in the area. <\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, Babineck teaches 130 eighth-grade students in six different sections of science. In the mix are keiki of all academic abilities and backgrounds.<\/p>\n

One of them is Lilly Balukoff, who gushes about  <\/span>Babineck making science \u201crelatable and fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne experiment he showed us was with the properties of liquid nitrogen,\u201d she says. \u201cWe used it to make ice cream and we got to see how the liquid nitrogen turned into a gas, while at the same time, the liquid mixture turned into the ice cream.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

When Babineck joined King Intermediate\u2019s faculty, he was only a few months removed from earning his degree in chemistry from Hawai\u2018i Pacific University and, remarkably, being named its valedictorian.<\/p>\n

\u201cI graduated HPU in May of 2023 \u2026 and part of that honor was giving an address at the commencement ceremony. So, I gave a speech about my experiences and what I got out of HPU, and encouraged my fellow classmates at the Hawai\u2018i Convention Center, in front of 4,000 people,\u201d explains Babineck. <\/span><\/p>\n

The fledgling teacher grew up in \u2018Ewa Beach, the oldest of two sons born to a construction industry worker, Michael, and a stay-at-home mom, Junim. He credits his eighth-grade science teacher at the now-closed Our Lady of Perpetual Help School with making science fun for him. In the eighth grade, he entered his school\u2019s science fair and walked away with first-place honors. He also captured third place at the district competition and followed that up by securing a second-place finish at the state fair.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat really showed me that my interest in science could turn into something more than just an interest and that maybe a career in science was possible for me,\u201d says Babineck.<\/p>\n

As fate would have it, he applied to Maryknoll School and received a scholarship that covered a substantial part of the tuition. Once on campus, he was further drawn to science thanks to two instructors: Lauren Gardner-Roulston, who impressed him with her master\u2019s degree in cellular molecular biology and background in scientific research; and AP (advanced placement) chemistry teacher Derek Birkmire, who he says made class \u201csuper fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

In time, Babineck became so well versed in the subject matter that he was able to help his classmates \u2014 many of whom were older high school students \u2014 to understand the content. <\/span><\/p>\n

With Birkmire\u2019s encouragement, Babineck decided to register for upper-division chemistry classes at HPU. He wound up passing with a score of 5 on the AP chemistry exam, which allowed him \u201cto take organic chemistry and analytical chemistry the following fall when I was just 16 years old.\u201d<\/p>\n

An individual who scores a 5 on the exam is considered extremely well qualified in the subject. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was navigating Hawai\u2018i Pacific University enrolled in upper division chemistry classes with college juniors and seniors,\u201d Babineck explains. \u201cSo, some of my classmates were in their 20s, some were ex-military people in their 40s, so I was fully immersed in the university setting at 16 because I chased my interests.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to his chemistry classes at HPU, Babineck decided to get involved in research. He started off as secretary of the HPU Undergraduate Infrastructure Student Research Center and later became its president. With encouragement from his oceanography professor, David Hyrenbach, and chemistry professor, David Horgen, he also received a grant from the Health Research Concepts Competition National Institute for Health. It  <\/span>allowed him to do his own research exploring the effects of chemical weathering on plastic marine debris pollutants. <\/span><\/p>\n

Babineck\u2019s desire to mentor others also grew in college. After noticing his fellow students struggle in chemistry classes, he asked his professor if he could serve as a teaching assistant the following year, and the professor agreed. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere were people I was teaching as a 17-year-old that were much older than me, but in that teaching setting, I feel like I was respected by the students in that class and a lot of people came to me during office hours for help. I hosted weekly study sessions,\u201d Babineck notes. <\/span><\/p>\n

During the middle of the following semester, another chemistry professor asked him if he could be teaching assistant for her class as well. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat really made me think I made a difference was that at the very end of the semester, the professor of that class came to me and she was kind of crying. And what she told me was that since I started helping out as teaching assistant, every single student\u2019s final grade was either the same or higher than their midterm grade,\u201d he remembers. <\/span><\/p>\n

Despite spending only two years each at Maryknoll and HPU, Babineck doesn\u2019t believe he missed out on any part of the high school or college experience. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt Maryknoll, I was involved with student life, athletics and clubs and at HPU, likewise,\u201d he says. \u201cI had a lot of good college friends even though I was younger than most people.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

By the time he graduated from HPU, Babineck was determined to enter the teaching profession. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI ended up deciding that I wanted to teach eighth grade, because I feel like eighth grade is a key point in lots of people\u2019s lives,\u201d he explains. \u201cI feel like my eighth grade science fair experience and things like that really pushed me into high school with an open mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although school keeps him busy, Babineck finds time to participate in outdoor activities. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a certified scuba diver,\u201d he says. \u201cI enjoy hikes, paddleboarding, surfing.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Looking ahead, Babineck sees some long-term career goals for himself that continue to revolve around education. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI do want to become a college professor \u2014 maybe I will teach high school sometime as well,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Right now, Babineck\u2019s focus remains firmly planted on the success of his King Intermediate science students. His personal mission involves encouraging his students and hoping they grow to love the topic as much as their still wet-behind-the-ears instructor. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want you to develop a positive relationship with science,\u201d he emphasizes to students. \u201cI want you guys to see that science is something that we observe in the world around us, and I want you to know if you enjoy science, there is a path for you as a career.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
